The Peloponnesian War

In the history of ancient Greece, we were able to find and understand the many major wars that occurred. One of the most destructive and important wars in Greek history was a Peloponnesos war. The war lasted 27 years, Sparta, Athens and its allies suffered a tremendous loss of life and economic turmoil. The reason why this war is so important is the influence on Athens and its political regime. As a result of the Persian War, Greece believes it is necessary to establish an alliance to defend against future attacks.

What is Peloponnesus War? Today we call it a war of Peloponnesus - a historian calls it the second Peloponnesus war (this is the theme of Thucydides' life and work, and of decisive events in his life Is) - Yes 27 years conflict between two prominent city states of ancient Greece, Athens and Sparta. This is a long war from 431 BC to 404 BC, a very destructive war. It ended with a victory over Sparta to Athens, but Thucydides claimed that Athens ultimately lost its "polarization" of war democracy through civil warfare rather than its hostile behavior. It affected foreign policy of the country. For unknown reasons Thucydides 'own work was suddenly interrupted seven years before the end of the war in 411 BC - but as I pointed out, he diagnosed the cause of Athens' failure.

Thucydides is known for his masterpiece of the history of the Peloponnesus War (a war between the Peloponnesian alliance led by Otaku Sparta and the Derian alliance led by democratic Athens). The Peloponnesus War occurred between 431 BC and 404 BC, but the history of Tukidi ended in 411 BC. His death may not make him complete his history. At the beginning of his history (1.1), Thucydides said that he began writing about the war between the Athenians and Peloponnese since the beginning of the war as he thought it would be the biggest war of that period. One of the most common wars in this area. Not only because Athens and Sparta were very strong when they entered the war, but also because other Greek cities quickly formed an alliance with one of the two competitors.
